Frequently Asked Questions

What does kilogram/hour/square meter measure?
It measures the mass flux density, representing how many kilograms of material pass or accumulate per hour on each square meter of area.

Where is pound/second/square foot commonly used?
This unit is used in imperial-system contexts to specify mass flow rates through a square foot per second, such as in fuel injector or HVAC system design.

How is the conversion factor calculated?
The factor accounts for differences in mass, time, and area units between kilogram/hour/square meter and pound/second/square foot based on established equivalences.

Key Terminology

Mass Flux Density
A measurement of mass flow rate through or accumulation on a defined surface area per unit time.
Kilogram/hour/square meter (kg·h⁻¹·m⁻²)
A metric unit expressing kilograms of substance transported or accumulated per hour on each square meter area.
Pound/second/square foot (lb·s⁻¹·ft⁻²)
An imperial unit measuring pounds of mass crossing one square foot of area every second.
